New kids on the block
Welcome Heather, Don and Jim!
As Munuvians, you must be added to the decals on the Air Munuviana.
I'll post the first draft of the decals sometime this week. What I need from you three is your country, because I'm putting a national flag next to each Munuvian's name. Tim gets two - Canadian and American - because he drank the weird milk and it's changed him. He say's "eh?" and everything.
So let me know please, and if you want special logos like university or other affiliations, speak up. I may need you to find it and send it to me.
Air Munuviana makes her maiden flight November 1st or 2nd in Culpeper, Virginia.
Posted by Ted at October 5, 2003 05:37 PM | TrackBackHow does one make a logo anyway? How'd you make yours, Ted?
Also, does anyone know how I could change the font of my heading? Maybe something akin to the New York Times font or something. I'd just like to have something snazzier than that plain ol' block lettering.

Posted by: hln at October 6, 2003 12:29 AMA friend of mine at work does commercial-grade artwork. I told him the name of the blog and he drew the cartoon for me in black and white. I took a pic of it with a digital camera (no scanner), converted it to gif and colorized it using Paint Shop Pro. My header is a table, and the toon goes into the leftmost cell.
Posted by: Ted at October 6, 2003 01:24 AMIsn't your header font described in the CSS style sheet template as 'H1'? I believe that's where you change that.
Posted by: Ted at October 6, 2003 01:25 AMHe has a new banner.
Posted by: Jennifer at October 6, 2003 02:04 AMTed, I understood that like I understand the NYSE. Anyway, Jen came through!!
Posted by: Tuning Spork at October 6, 2003 05:00 AMTed, could you put a Chicago Cubs decal on there for me? (Jen can share it if she wants....we "I" states stick together!
Posted by: Susie at October 6, 2003 06:02 AMThere is a Cubs logo on my site.
Posted by: Jennifer at October 6, 2003 06:37 AMAmerica for me. Also the US Navy flag would be very cool.
Posted by: Jim at October 6, 2003 12:01 PMSorry Spork. I'm no HTML genius, I just change things one at a time and see what happens. Do enough of that and you can sound like you know what you're talking about, just like I do. 
Hey, are you gonna put the mu.nu meatball on it?
That would be cool.
IF (the uppercase IF was not a mistake) you still have room, I (and I think my gf) would appreciate the Maryland state flag--but if you're nervous about opening *that* can o' worms, I understand.
Posted by: Victor at October 6, 2003 01:39 PMTed, we're gonna need pictures of that rocket, ya know....(just to see how you managed to get us all on there~!)
Posted by: Susie at October 6, 2003 03:29 PMUSA.
Posted by: Don at October 6, 2003 04:41 PMAlso, I my boss lives in Culpeper which is like 45 minutes away from where I work. Maybe if I look really hard I'll be able to see the Flight of the Munuvianan Rocket!
Posted by: Don at October 6, 2003 04:43 PMDon, you're welcome to attend the launch. It's one of the biggest annual rocket events on the east coast, and there will be everything from itty-bitty to whoa-nelly sized rockets taking flight.
Posted by: Ted at October 7, 2003 03:43 AMCan you do Michigan? I hope that, like Robert E. Lee, I'd be more loyal to my state than the US, especially as the whole centralization of power thing keeps happening. I'll try to find a flag somewhere.
Posted by: Tim the Michigander at October 9, 2003 03:03 AMTim, I've got the Michigan flag already. You want it next to your name instead of the US flag, right?
Victor, the Maryland flag is a go.
Lady H, I need to know your preferences.
